So, this is kind of a secret spot that the locals know about on the side of magical Neah-kah-nie Mountain, a few miles from where I live. It's a very narrow and kind of treacherous finger of land that juts out way over the ocean with steep drops to the cold water below. The music is so very fitting for this geographic place....there are people drawn here for spiritual reasons, serendipitous reasons and, unfortunately, people who come here to die by jumping off the cliffs into the water. This place was recognized by the native americans as a power spot and it remains so today. Nice to see such a beautiful song recorded there that will gain such national attention. Oh, to set the record straight, it's in Manzanita/Nehalem, Oregon and in Oswald West State Park, in north Tillamook county. This place is nothing like Cannon Beach energy which is where you'll find CEOs and more high profile/high bankroll folk. The Neahkahnie Mountain energy speaks mostly to artists, seekers, dreamers and spiritual folk....
This recording does the place honor... Gave me goosebumps.
I thought it must be the PNW! The rugged coast, the dim gray sky, the green...
This song, and this rendition of it, haunts my very bones. One thing I love about old timey songs: their lyrics frequently dive into painful subjects and dwell on them. But who, who has thought about the mystery of existence, hasn't asked the questions the singer asks?
The second time I listened to this, it was with high quality headphones. My god, the sound of the wind and the birds adds so much to the composition.
I find this a very haunting and soulful song - it hits to the bottom of my heart. Love their m music, her singing .... and her talking. She has so much to say if we listen.
Haunts my spirit , draws me banjo and her voice that stirs with wisdom , Love , Love , Thanks PBS ......
You really have a beautiful voice and the melody of the song it's very paceful.
Hi from Caracas, the most danger city in the world, Venezuela. (I speak spanish haha)
This is a great Sacred Harp tune. Well done for just the tenor part and a nice banjo part to go with it.
this goes down as one of the greatest, gets me every time
RedSpiritHands comment is accurate. I have been there many times. The comment on the difference between Manzanita and Cannon Beach is also accurate.
I couldn't hit the favorite button hard enough...
ditto
For me it was the toilet bowl - What a load of nauseating miserable wange !!
Magic

The first time I heard Bela was on a classical radio station playing Bach. I was thinking. What a beautiful sounding instrument... is that a Banjo? Naw...
Outstanding, simply outstanding!!

Wonderful music! But also, where was this filmed? What a gorgeous location!
The Oregon coast.
This is the song I want played at my last public appearance.
Me too
You mean the last appearance where you hand out cards with a Ouija Board printed on it that says “let’s keep in touch”? Well then, me too.
Abigail, you left off the last verse which answers the question!
What banjo tuning is this?
+pixy dust42 I think just the Hi D is dropped
I think the 5th is dropped to F# actually
Eres tan fértil como una mujer africana...!!!
was i born to live or die?
A very old Appalachian he’ll folk song
Perhaps it speaks to me because my Mother's side of the family is deeply rooted in the Appalachians...
Actually it was written by Charles Wesley in the 1700s

All who are born will die and be no more - So enjoy your life as there is no other. There is no god
only sky above and beyond that the expanding universe.
i love to hear her sing...but god how i hate to hear her talk!
Go be negative somewhere else, Duncan. You could have just left it at "I love to hear her sing". Just because you think it, doesn't necessarily mean everyone wants to hear it. But it's a free country. Go ahead. You're free to show everyone how ungracious you are.
